Good toy quality. After receiving as a birthday gift two of my sons (6 and 4) played most of the day, to include the two hour car ride home, with the toy. Plenty of parts for two boys to build and play. A focal point of play and often incorporated with other trucks and building blocks into larger scenarios.

I have purchased other Zoob kits for my son and this was an add-on so now he can make cars, etc. The Zoob kits are always good qaulity and this was no exception. He loves building the contraptions shown in the pamphlet that comes with the book and they are just the right level of challenge for him (he is 7-1/2).

I got this for my 5 year old son for Christmas. His Daddy had to put the cars together for him but once they were together Joshua got the hang of how to "modify" them to make different "kinds" of vehicles out of them. It always amazes me how a toy today will change with respect to how my son uses it from one year to the next. I know that he will being using and "re-creating" with these cars for years to come as his mind and coordination skills grow.

My 9-year-old son has many different building systems. Unlike more complicated sets, putting ZOOB together is a "snap". It's been a low-stress, creative alternative for him this Christmas and will be a favorite for many years to come!

This product is different than building with traditional blocks- It gives new and exciting options for creativity. My almost four year old loves building with it. It is also good for fine motor skills and strengthening. It comes with 3 different books/guides to build many, many different vehicles. Well packaged.

This is a neat building type toy that is good for parent child type play. I personally enjoy making things with my kids, so this was right up both of our alleys. My son is four and can't really follow any of the picture diagrams, but he enjoys building his own, simpler creations. The product seems sturdy, and it doesn't take long to be comfortable enough to build the most complicated design. The instructions give a nice set of examples, divided up amongst easy, medium, and hard designs.

My daughter has enjoyed Zoob Dudes for several years now. We have about 300 hundred of them. Adding the Zoob car to her collection has been a real treat for her as she is able to expand her design options. Of all the toys received on Christmas day these were the first out of the package and first played with.
We would like to see Zoob add more options to their designs. Consider different size wheels, and/or different size Zoob play pieces. Maybe some way to connect flat peices to make houses or buildings.
This is a great toy.

We bought this for our 4 year old son and he wouldn't put it down for days. It did require adult assistance to create the actual provided car designs but our son loves to build with the pieces on his own. He actually prefers this set to Legos. The pieces snap together very well with some strength required at times but the product is designed in a very unique way.

My son (8) had the Zoob 75 and really enjoyed playing with it. I got him the ZoobMobile set after thinking about how much more he did with the toys he built and redesigned, rather than toys that just did one thing. This new set was a huge hit and he has played with it for 10+ hours in 4 days (plus friends that came to visit really enjoyed it, too.) He has been using it along with his set of 75 and now wants more! As a set by itself I think it would be fine, but for a child that already has some I highly recommend this product. The wheels add a great new dimension and really encourage him to think about how things move and work together in new ways. I was hesitant about buying this as he was also getting several remote control cars for Christmas but it clearly was the way to go.

We took this along on vacation for our grandsons who are 6 and 8. They already had a basic set of Zoob toys, but that set did not include tires. They loved the new set since they love building anything with wheels. The quality of the toys is wonderful. They snap together easily for small hands and stay together for them to play with. I would recommend this set to anyone. It was a great toy for a rainy day.

This is a nice set, which complements well the 500 piece set we bought at the same time. Zoob seems to be a lot of fun, even though some of connection techniques are quite challenging for small hands. Some attachments are sturdier than others, and since Zoob pieces are two halves glued together (rather than a one-piece molding) the stress put on some connections may crack the pieces in the long run. Still, it is a fresh idea, and the skeletal style designs are attractive. The wheels add a final touch to keep the child learning for hours.

I love the idea of this toy, but it hasn't quite lived up to my expectations, yet. My son, who's almost seven, loved the idea of it also, but hasn't quite enjoyed it as much as we'd hoped yet. He's had some trouble with some of the connections, gives him a bit of frustration. But I still remain hopeful.

THe peices are large enough that a 3 - 4 year old can not, with out great effort, swallow ( i have a grand son that puts everything in his mouth first...humm ). They are easy to manipulate and the child can put projects together on his/her independently. They peices are VERY sturdy and can be used to create endless projects. I also like that these peices are interchangable with most of the other Zoob products. Finally, I am surprised with how fast the vehicles travel.

My grandson has enjoyed this toy very much. It's sturdy and easy to play with and he doesn't get frustrated trying to put the shapes together. This morning he fashioned a person from all the wheels and car parts. He loves it!

My son loves building. He hasn't opened this yet, but I know he'll love it. He will be able to use all these pieces with his bigger zoob set. I love that you can add on to it. Great gift that will keep him busy and happy for years to come!

My 4.5 year old loves this set so much that I bought it for two of his friends (who also love it). The younger ones need a little help at first with following the more complex designs, but love to build on their own as well.

This toy is fantastic! It encourages creativity while promoting sequencing and fine motor skills. My child and his friends are entertained for hours with it! In fact I love it so much that I bought a set as a birthday gift.

We really like it. My boys 5 & 8 particularly like the wheels/vehicle aspect of what they can create. One likes to follow the directions and make items in the books. The other only likes to create his own. Colorful pieces are easy to connect.

A great toy for a very creative 5 year old who loves to assemble everything from transformers to Lego kits for 10 year olders and above. This toy gives him the opportunity to exercise his desire to assemble and to create at the same time.

The 250 piece ZOOB Set is totally awesome. The boys sure do enjoy building many different contraptions. I have complete confidence that the Car Designer is going to be just as awesome as our other set. As with any building toy the more pieces you have the more creative you can be. Besides you are not limited to just building the car, you can build the DNA Strand and attach some wheels on it! It's pretty cool!

The ZOOBMobile is one of the best toys we've gotten for our five year old son. The toy is so versatile that he's been playing with it almost on a daily basis. He occasionally follows the included instructions to build the pre-designed cars. Other times he makes up his own designs to build his imaginary action figures.

I Didn't Know Building Toys Could Be So EasyPosted 11/14/2006 by Jose Jimenez

I picked up a beginner set of Zoobs thinking it might be something good to entertain my daughter, 2 1/2. I turned around and ordered these within a week or two. I find them easy to work with and lots of fun for me and my daughter. She loves cars already and being able to add here and there is her favorite part. "Where's the man," she asks. And we add a man. I've always been a flat wall kind of builder with blocks, very little is possible within my grasp of those kinds of toys, but this one makes me able to express my creativity!

My 5 year son and his 5 year old sisters love this toy. It provides hours of continuous entertainment and can go everywhere with them. I buy them for gifts for all the birthday parties they go to and will give my son the larger set for his birthday.
